Flexible and expandable
September 1st 2007

PowerFlex powered flexible and expandable roller conveyors from Best Diversified Products have been supplied to TNT Express.

A carousel layout was used for rapid sortation, made easier as the PowerFlex powered conveyor could be used to create a circle in 7.3m of conveyor. PowerFlex was suitable as the large rugged castors allowed for the unit to be quickly relocated, compacted (3:1 ratio) and stored away.

From the discharge end of the fixed conveyor, a second PowerFlex unit conveys the parcels into a 40ft trailer on the opposite side of the depot for onward despatch to the central hub.

Overall depot sorting time has been reduced by 30 mins per shift.
